Or. Admin. Code § 860-034-0120 - Late-Payment Charge

(1) A small telecommunications utility may apply a late-payment charge to customer accounts not paid in full each month, provided the utility has filed the late-payment charge in its rate schedule.

(2) The charge will be based on a monthly late-payment rate applied to overdue account balances at the time of preparing the subsequent month's bill for residential accounts or by the bill due date for all other accounts. The late-payment charge may not be applied to time-payment accounts that are current. The current late-payment rate and the conditions for its application to customer accounts must be specified on the utility bill.
